'Histories are more full of examples of the fidelity of dogs than
of friends'. - Alexander PopeThroughout the history of writing,
dogs have captivated their owners with their loyalty and
playfulness. The timeless and universal friendship between people
and dogs has inspired great poets, novelists and short-story
writers across the Western world to put pen to paper.This anthology
celebrates dozens of the greatest dogs in literature as imagined by
writers from the Middle Ages to the present day. William
Shakespeare, Mark Twain, Charles Dickens and Rudyard Kipling all
recognise the contribution dogs make to people's lives; Virginia
Woolf, Beatrix Potter and William Cowper lend voices to our furry
friends and write from the unique perspective of dogs; and Lord
Byron and Arthur Conan Doyle commemorate dogs as lifelong
companions and true friends.Many of the great dogs of literature
are here, from Dodie Smith's beloved Dalmatian couple Pongo and
Perdita to Jack London's fearsome White Fang, and the anthology is
illustrated throughout with heart-warming scenes of man's best
friend.
